Leo can probably respond to this better than I can, but it's myunder standing that the ICC began requiring the use of heavier steel plate in the construction of tank cars used for volatile cargos, so most railroads relegated their comparatively small tank car fleets to strictly company service, where they could continue hauling the same volatile cargos in the same trains through the same communities but not be covered by the new construction standards because they were not being used in interstate commerce.

Any guesses what the distillate (up to 10,000 gallons) would be used for? And still on the subject of renumbering, any idea why tank cars were renumbered out of the revenue service numbering in about 1938?

In light of recent discussions about the use of company-owned tank cars in revenue service (which occurred primarily before their renumbering into the 230000 series), here are a couple of bits of correspondence on the topic that I uncovered in the Colorado Railroad Museum library while sorting old records yesterday:
 
Denver, Colo., August 10, 1932
 
Geo. Eckhart, CB&Q, Casper
 
Purchasing Department ordering today from Continental OIl Company one car distillate to be billed C&S Denver, wanted destination ot later than 15th, understand will load at Standard Oil Company, Casper.  Protect with CB&Q car.   K 338.
